In normal cases short term capital loss can be set off against long term capital gain.

 

But here LTCG is exempt under section 10(38) so u cannot set off STC loss against this because there is no taxable LTCG.

sir can you please provide me with a case law
no case laws required.... losses can be set off only aGainst taxable income and not against exempted income
